Packaging is fairly standard with the normal quality MSI design housing the card and drivers.
Once out of the package we can see that the Twin Frozr II cooler dominates proceedings and looks as pretty as ever.
The Twin Frozr II bristles with heat-pipes and cooling fins beneath those two PWM fans. There is no denying that it always has the looks to go along with its performance.
The GTX560-Ti is powered by two 6-pin PCI-E power inputs, and has two DVI and one mini-HDMI outputs.
We always get a little excited when dealing with two cards. There is no denying that a matched pair always look stunning whether in the rig, or just in the photo booth.

My review withdrawal systems are cured, thanks, Bryan 
So for £400 a whole £150+ less than a 590/6990 you can get similar performance, not bad if you ask me. Sacrificing some AA in one game shouldn't really put you off and anyone with an AMD card can only have up to a maximum of 8x AA anyway.
If you have the money for a 590 that would ideally be the better option in the long run but if you are on a budget SLI MSI 560 TI's is a pretty damn good alternative.

No tinkering with overclocks?

One is enough for 98% of games out there, but who would say No to two of them

, good review but I'm missing video.Yer the one problem with two mid ranged cards find myself not having enough shaders but personal gripe. Also Tom did give big thumbs up too sli gtx 570's not too long ago on a forum thread.
